Chapter 180 - 178 Requiem
I'd be happy if you could recall Arton and Butta after watching Episode 4!
According to Wesson, the village we were heading to was apparently the last village in His Majesty's territory. He informed us that from tomorrow, we would be entering the Klaus family's territory.
While everyone was busy preparing for departure, the Shinobi men and the Kunoichi women were at the water source, thoroughly washing out their canteens and refilling them with water.
(As expected, their vigilance is high, but it's all the same. I already laced the water they drank at breakfast with an aphrodisiac. You all drank plenty. Stay nice and horny all day today too.)
Let's have those ten writhe in pleasure again today.
Then the adventurers appeared and started teasing the ten.
"Still got a hard-on? That's more than just morning wood, huh?"
"You sick or something? You look dead tired. Don't you dare hold Shivans-sama back."
"If that's the case, we'd have been better off being on the same team as you guys! Right?"
They laughed mockingly, and as Beta tried to throw a punch, the other four held him back.
"Getting angry over a little teasing is pretty childish, you know! If you're hard from jerking off too much to the moans of those sexy Kunoichi ladies over there, then I guess you've got a case of 'tired dick,' huh?"
Grinning, he then turned his gaze to the Kunoichi women.
"Hey? You're really starved for a man, aren't you?"
"When you make noises like that, we can't get any sleep either. How about a mixed bath tonight! Cure my insomnia with some sex."
The Kunoichi women were also holding back the urge to punch him.
"Shivans-sama's got no eye for talent, huh?"
"You think guys who are that horny can actually protect the caravan?"
Hearing this, the Shinobi men felt their sense of crisis growing.
"They're right, you know. As we are now, we can't fight at full strength if we're attacked by monsters or bandits. And Beta, you need to calm down more. This is a mission."
"Sorry, Alpha. I did lose my cool."
When Gamma checked with his subordinates, he received a report that the End Woman and the three men had apparently vanished without a trace.
"There's no one in the tavern. Of course, they apparently never even stepped outside. But they say there's no bloodstains or bones from the four of them left behind either."
Delta put his arm around Beta's shoulder as if to comfort the frustrated man.
"We just carry out the mission without thinking. That's all."
Sigma was thinking a little.
"I wonder what we were trained for... To me, Shivans-sama doesn't seem like a bad person..."
Saying things like that won't change anything. No one can defy the Chief or the Elders.
Meanwhile, the Kunoichi women were also troubled.
"At this rate, we won't be able to focus on the mission. If those adventurers attack us, we might not even be able to defend ourselves, right?"
Due nodded at Anne's words.
"We're exhausted from lack of sleep and our stamina is depleted. Even walking is tiring. This is bad."
Trois came up with a suggestion.
"Just like the Koka tribe did something, shouldn't we try something from our side too?"
There was one person that came to mind for all five of them.
"Eww? You mean ask that shitty old man? No way."
Quatre showed her disgust openly.
"But... we can't do anything as we are now. Anne! Beggars can't be choosers. I want you to send a messenger!"
Anne nodded, and after asking the shadows, they quietly disappeared.
We continued our journey westward.
Today, I was keeping Wesson company.
"As expected of Shivans-sama! Fearing your name, not a single bandit, not even a single monster dares attack us! Ahahaha!"
He was flattering me, but it wasn't like not a single one had appeared. Nadja had shot down wolves and such with her bow and arrow, though they weren't monsters.
"Safety is the most important thing. It's a peaceful landscape."
"The roads are better and wider now, but in the old days, it sometimes took about a week just to get this far. Of course, there were no bridges or tunnels, and we'd get stuck all the time on the muddy roads!"
At noon, we took a break at a pseudo-rest area.
Surprisingly, there were many carriages, and merchants were using it as a place to exchange information.
Of course, there were toilet breaks, but also places to replenish water, and since there were many stalls, it was lively.
"Shivans-sama! Buy me some meat skewers from over there!"
"Nadja, you ate that much in the morning and you're already hungry?"
Nadja, who had been close to being a vagrant, had no money. I felt like I was her guardian now.
The other adventurers were also laughing at the sight.
"She's like Shivans-sama's little sister!"
"But... for such a thin and small body, she sure eats a lot, huh?"
I talked to the old man at the stall.
"This whole area used to be desolate, but now there aren't any monsters or bandits left. It's strange, when we were poor, they were everywhere, and when we got rich, they disappeared. But hey, I hear it gets dangerous once you leave the Bismarck territory, you know?"
Once we leave the Bismarck territory, we enter Count Arton's territory, but apparently the first part we pass through is Viscount Butta's territory, a vassal noble of Count Arton.
(He came to my hot spring inn back in the day. A short, fat, bald old man who acted like a tyrant. I wonder if he's still alive?)
He told me that recently, both the reputation and public order were bad there.
"Apparently it's not good for business. It'd be smarter to just pass through quickly."
"I see. Thank you very much."
"Don't mention it! That little lady over there bought plenty from me!"
Nadja, holding the rice ball I gave her in one hand and stuffing her face with meat skewers in the other, was an incredible sight. I watched her, thinking she could probably enter an eating contest now.
Then, Hawk seemed to have spotted someone suspicious.
He was making contact with the Kunoichi women.
"As we are now... we have no choice but to rely on Jiji-sama. Could we ask you for that matter?"
Anne was bowing her head to the old man.
"We beg of you too. As we are now, we have no stamina..."
As Due also bowed her head, the old man looked at the five of them with a lecherous face.
"When five pretty ladies bow their heads to me, I can't very well say no! When it comes to handling poison, I'm the best in the village! But you understand what it means to ask a favor of me, right?"
He made a gesture of groping breasts with lewd hands, and licked his lips, moving his mouth and tongue.
"We understand. We will serve Jiji-sama naked with our mouths and chests."
Trois answered with a smile, but she was probably reluctant deep down.
"However, we cannot give you our virginity!"
From Quatre's words, I understood that all of them were virgins.
"I know that! I value my own life too. If Obaaba-sama or Baba-sama found out, I'd be killed! Why don't you just become my wives after this mission is over! Then there'd be no problem at all, right?"
So, it seemed the only two choices were to become his wives after the mission, or to be taken by him in a suicide bombing and lose their virginity? What a terrifying rule.
"Understood, Jiji-sama. However, we must carry out the mission. There will be no breast groping or oral service!"
When Cinq said this in a stern tone, he replied, "I know! Then tonight, I'll send that Shivans fellow to the afterlife! Once that's done, you understand what's expected of you, right? Cleanse your bodies and wait for me tonight!" He laughed loudly and disappeared.
Waiting for the old man to disappear, Trois timidly confirmed with Anne.
"Anne! Are you really going to give your body to a shitty old man like that?"
She shook her head vigorously.
"Hmph! As if I'd let him! I'll say we need to sleep well tonight and confirm it tomorrow morning! It's true that you can't tell in the dark, right? What 'wife'! I'd rather die!"
The other four also showed how much they hated him, saying things like "I didn't even want to talk to him" or "If Shivans-sama is dead tomorrow morning, I might want to die too."
(So tonight, it's the old man's grand funeral. Tomorrow morning, I'll play a beautiful yet sorrowful requiem!)
As I smiled, thinking I'd heard something good, Nadja asked, "You seem happy?"
"Well, yeah! Traveling is fun, Nadja!"
"Yes! Let's take a bath together tonight! I'll invite the big sisters too!"
Big sisters? Maybe she meant the Kunoichi women? Well, I don't think they'll actually come in.
When we arrived at the village just before evening, the village chief and all the villagers welcomed us. Wondering why, I was asked by the village chief, "You're the famous Shivans-sama, right?"
"I'm famous? But why are you welcoming us?"
More and more young people from the village were leaving for the Imperial Capital or the territory capital of Bismarck, leaving their homes behind. The houses were becoming vacant one after another, which was a problem. But with a large group like this coming, money for lodging and meals would flow into the village.
"Besides, if you dig a little in our village, hot springs come out everywhere!"
That was good to hear.
I was given a small barn.
I was grateful to be left alone!
I immediately repaired it with Revive and renovated it nicely.
When I dug in the backyard with earth magic, a hot spring really did come out.
Thinking that was the case, I put my back into it and made a large, clean hot spring. I even made a washing area and showers, making it seem like I could charge money for it.
I also installed fluorescent flowers so it could be used even at night.
(Right! To make it easier for that shitty old man to attack me, I'll reinforce the attic and make it nice too!)
I made it so that about ten people could come into the attic without any problem.
The Shinobi men moved into the house to my immediate right, and the Kunoichi women and Nadja moved into the large house to my immediate left.
Some village aunties came and said they would cook three houses' worth of meals for us, so I said "This is a little something" and gave them some silver coins. They brought a huge amount of vegetables and chicken and even cooked for us.
(Money really is effective, huh!)
In the meantime, I also repaired the houses of the Shinobi and Kunoichi with Revive.
Since they said they would cook outside, I installed fluorescent flowers to brighten the area. The aunties were both surprised and overjoyed.
"Oh my, how wonderful! All three houses look brand new!"
"Right! Shivans-sama is a genius mage-sama!"
Why was Nadja acting proud?
Wasn't anyone going to call her out on it? The aunties just said, "I suppose so." Then Nadja showed them the natural open-air bath I had made without permission, and they were all amazed by that too.
The meal began, and since the aunties were serving, I told them, "Please sit down," and also brought out some alcohol.
"You're welcome to use the bath too. I have towels ready, so it should be fine if you cover up, right? I think the steam will make it hard to see anyway."
But the aunties declined, saying, "That would be too presumptuous..."
When Nadja said, "I don't need a towel or anything! I don't mind being seen! Big sisters, let's go in together!" they seemed interested, thinking it would be fine if they covered up with a towel.
Then the Shinobi men and the Kunoichi women started arguing.
Alpha, probably because he had some alcohol in him, complained.
"We're going in with Shivans-sama too! I don't care about Nadja, but I have no intention of going in with you lot!"
Anne immediately counterattacked.
"Oh? We were invited by Nadja! You weren't called!"
Nadja stepped between them to stop the fight.
"Everyone is on Shivans-sama's team! Let's all go in together and get along!"
Hearing that, it was decided that after the meal, all twelve of us would go into the hot spring together.
We six men were soaking in the bath first when the Kunoichi came in, covered only by towels that barely hid them from chest to crotch, but Nadja didn't even try to hide herself.
After pouring water over themselves, when the women entered, the Shinobi men seemed awkward and tried to leave immediately, so I stopped them.
"Since we have shampoo and conditioner and body soap! Let's get nice and clean!"
The Kunoichi women reacted to my words.
"As dirty as ever!"
"Being filthy suits you!"
"You must stink, right?"
"Right, right! Because you're country bumpkins."
"You're running away because we're making them bigger again, aren't you! You perverts!"
The steam grew thick, making it impossible to see each other.
"I can't see a thing, Shivans-sama..."
"It's okay, Anne. Come over here."
The women gradually moved closer to our side.
Then, when the men started using the shampoo and conditioner, they all closed their eyes.
I coated the dicks of those five with Love Lotion and attached vibe slimes to them. Then, I aimed the five of them towards the women.
(Firing direction, good! Elevation, good! Range, good! Fire!)
When I blew away the steam with wind magic, their towels also flew off. The moment the fully naked women appeared before them and made eye contact with the men, a massive amount of white liquid directly hit them.
"Whoa! That stinks!"
"What is this!"
"It's all sticky..."
"We've been defiled!"
"You bastards! You saw us naked! What the hell were you thinking, shooting that filthy stuff at us!"
Having been facially ejaculated on and seeing the sperm on their bodies, the women, furious, grabbed the bath buckets and threw them at the Shinobi men. The men shouted, "It's a misunderstanding!" but that only made the women angrier: "What misunderstanding!"
"It's, it's a biological reaction..."
"Shut up! Die!"
The men had no choice but to quickly get out.
After that, the Kunoichi women, one by one, had their hair washed with shampoo and conditioner and their bodies washed with body soap by me, and then were cleaned up with shaving and hair removal cream.
(They probably think this is goodbye.)
They let me grope their breasts, play with their nipples and clits and pussies, and moaned. Because the steam had become thick, the five of them became bold. And they kissed me, who was behind them.
They seemed to believe that tomorrow would be goodbye, so it was probably meant as a 'kiss of death,' so to speak.
(You shouldn't always think things will go your way.)
No one noticed me smirking.
That Night.
When they infiltrated the attic, I deliberately lit only a single candle, creating a dim atmosphere. The old man and the Kunoichi women silently removed a board from the attic floor and looked down at me from the attic.
'How is it?'
'He's sleeping soundly.'
They were whispering, but I could hear them.
They slowly lowered a rod, stopping it just before my mouth, and let poison run down the rod, dripping it into my mouth.
Seeing me swallow with a 'gulp,' the old man rejoiced.
'Three drops of this is usually fatal. I poured over ten drops into that brat! Now for the finishing touch, these guys!'
Just as he dropped poisonous spiders, centipedes, and venomous snakes onto me, the candle flame conveniently went out, plunging everything into darkness.
The moment he got outside, the old man started talking loudly.
"That brat is an idiot! It's like he deliberately lit a candle just to get himself killed! Ahahaha!"
The moment she heard those words, Anne felt a chill.
A cold sweat inexplicably ran down her back, and she turned to look back at the barn building.
(Right... everything was too convenient. He was lying on his back, and the candle stayed lit until it was all over...)
"What's wrong, Anne?"
"Due... isn't this too convenient?"
Trois encouraged the uneasy Anne.
"You're overthinking it, Anne!"
"Right! Mission accomplished! Tomorrow we disband!"
At Quatre's words, the old man chimed in.
"You girls! You haven't forgotten that it's thanks to me, have you?"
He held out both hands, made a groping boobs gesture, and grinned.
"I haven't forgotten. But I told you, after we confirm it tomorrow morning!"
"Tch! Fine, Cinq. But make sure you take a bath and get clean tomorrow morning! See ya!"
When the old man disappeared, Anne got angry.
"You're the one who needs to get clean! With your dirty face and heart! As if a bath could wash that off!"
Then Due came out with a confession.
"You know... I actually really liked Shivans-sama! I mean, look! He was handsome and kind... and despite everything, I was happy when I was chosen, you know?"
Saying this, she started crying, and the other four also started crying in sympathy.
None of them said it, but thinking about how they were cleaned up nicely in the bath and how they kissed, when they returned to their room, all five of them masturbated while crying, "Goodbye, Shivans-sama..."
That night was busy.
I used Instant Movement to go to the two villages. I showed the Koka tribe's Chief and Elders nightmares with Nightmare. Of course, I did the same to the Iga tribe's Obaaba-sama and Baba-sama.
Then, as soon as I returned, I kidnapped the shitty old man.
The shitty old man was shocked to see me.
"You... why are you alive... what are you going to do with me..."
"How many people have you killed so far? Not satisfied with just experimenting on animals and insects, you killed many innocent people for your poison experiments, didn't you? I'll prepare a fitting death for you! Suffer!"
"You... devil... guh..."
Those were the shitty old man's last words.
"The highest compliment! Suffer and rot in hell!"
Now, what kind of faces will the Kunoichi women make? I can't wait to see.
To calm my excited feelings, I headed to the White Castle.
The End Woman was sleeping, but she woke up and entertained me.
"You seem quite worked up. Did you kill someone?"
"You can tell? He was a real piece of shit. But it's not a good feeling."
"I understand. I've killed many people too..."
Saying this, she spread her legs and took me in her mouth.
She was so wet she didn't even need the aphrodisiac or Love Lotion.
"Already this wet?"
"After being made such a lewd slut yesterday and being taken so much, of course I am. Please put it in quickly! This place has been waiting for its master!"
She spread herself open to show me.
"Your husband is still alive, right?"
"I doubt I'll ever see him again. Besides..."
She stared at me intently with a red face.
"Besides? What?"
"I've already been made into a woman's body! I made a vow, didn't I? You haven't forgotten, have you?"
I made her get on all fours facing away, spread her legs, stuck out her ass, and fucked her from behind.
"Poor husband. He'd never even dream that his wife is spreading her legs for me and shaking her ass in ecstasy, would he?"
"Don't say that... when you say things like that, I'll cum right away! It turns me on because I'm such a lewd woman!"
As soon as she came, she shook her hips and ass even more.
"I'm no longer... a wife or a mother! I'm a woman who's crazy for her master and cums over and over! I want more... more! I'm a shameless woman begging for her master's seed... breed me!"
After I came plenty inside her, she put her fingers in her pussy and performed Cleaning Fellatio.
"Why are you putting your fingers in there?"
"Because! It turns me on when you watch, and it feels good... and it's a waste if the seed leaks out!"
She was so cute that I held her again until nearly dawn.
The Next Morning
To keep their promise with the old man, the Kunoichi women entered the hot spring I had made early in the morning.
"I feel so depressed..."
The five of them had dark faces and kept muttering these words.
The villagers were all out preparing our breakfast.
The Kunoichi women got out of the bath and headed for breakfast, where they were shocked.
"Shivans-sama's cooking is delicious too, but the aunties' cooking is the best!"
"We love watching you eat, Nadja-chan!"
Then Anne saw me and let it slip: "You should be dead!"
Alpha, trying to look good in front of me, accused Anne with an angry pose: "What do you mean? What did you bastards do to Shivans-sama!"
"Now, now. Anne must have had a scary dream last night. Come on! It's a special breakfast, after all."
The other four breathed a sigh of relief, saved by my cover-up.
But Anne alone couldn't stop the cold sweat on her back even today.
(What is this premonition? I'm scared...)
She could barely eat, trembling. And then, when it was finally time to depart, the villagers came to see us off, but we heard a woman's scream: "Kyaa!"
At the village's west gate, there was a crucified corpse.
It was in a gruesome state.
'A Man Bewitched by a Devil'
A tattoo was carved into its face, spelling that out.
The face was twisted in pain, eyes bulging and bleeding, hands nailed with thick stakes and bleeding. The body seemed to be eaten by maggot-like things, and wolves had apparently scattered the protruding internal organs.
"Ugh..."
Even the adventurers who had seen dead bodies before all vomited at the sight of such a brutal killing.
"Who is this person? Why were they killed so horribly? Who on earth...?"
The village chief also lamented while vomiting.
That was my cue.
"Village Chief. Would you leave this to me?"
"Wh-what are you going to do?"
Without answering the question, I stepped forward in front of the crucified body, and everyone watched quietly, paying attention.
In the dead silent place, I chanted a spell sonorously.
"O pitiful evil man! Thy past is filled with filth, and thy soul is chained to hell, falling ever deeper. But by the power of the gods, I shall save and purify thy defiled soul!"
As I performed a dance as if to mourn the dead, cheers arose, and I played a requiem in a quiet melody.
Everyone stared at me as if enchanted.
Purification
The corpse sparkled, and a cheer of "Ooh!" went up.
Then, the old man's body began to glow. It changed into particles of light, and everyone watched as it slowly rose high into the sky.
"I am released from the prison of hell."
As my words echoed, the glowing old man turned around with a happy smile.
The village was enveloped in a solemn atmosphere, and everyone shed tears and clasped their hands in prayer.
The villagers, merchants, and adventurers all prostrated themselves while crying.
And when the scenery returned to normal, everyone made a huge commotion.
"A god! Shivans-sama was a god!"
"Right! He must be! We witnessed a miracle! Did you see it? The light ascended to heaven, and that old man was smiling and waving his hand!"
The most surprised one, standing there with her mouth open in a daze, was Anne. Forgetting even the throbbing in her pussy, she stared blankly up at the sky.
Before anyone knew it, the crucifixion was clean. Naturally, the corpse was gone. Even the vomit everyone had thrown up was cleanly purified.
The shadows of the Koka tribe and Iga tribe watching this scene.
"Our village made a grave mistake! We were lured by a devil's temptation and made to challenge a god in human form... Hurry! By the god's hand... our village may be destroyed..."
"Yes!"
The two tribes had entered a countdown to destruction, and the shadows panicked.
The respective units hurriedly prepared fast horses, needing to contact their villages immediately.
I ate half a whole Christmas cake and got heartburn...
I'm an idiot, right? Please laugh...
